This Old Video of Ariana Grande on Broadway Proves She Loves Donuts Once and For All

Never forget donutgate 2015.

Ariana Grande is an award winning singer and actress, but you might have missed her turn on Broadway in the musical 13. And if you did, you're in luck — because Ari jumped in as a surprise guest at a concert last night at Hollywood's Catalina Bar and Grill. She killed the songs, which were composed by Jason Robert Brown, and proved once again that girl. can. sing. anything.

But that video sent us on a little YouTube spiral, and led us to this vintage recording session clip from Broadway.com. It features a curly-haired Ariana who mentions sharing a chocolate donut with one of her costars. "I remember that the day I went for my first audition," she says at the 2 minute 50 second mark, "and [costar] Aaron [Simon Gross] was just coming out of his and he had been told he got a callback. So he came downstairs to meet me and we went to Dunkin Donuts and got a chocolate donut. Our parents have no idea what to do with themselves. They think it's just the craziest thing in the world that two best friends from Boca Raton, Florida are now in a Broadway show together."

But, wait. What did she say about a donut? That she ate a donut? That all those years ago, she had no problems with donuts?

Remember how there was a little trouble with donutgate last year, when Ariana was filmed licking one in a bakery? She didn't always feel that way. And this throwback video is proof. Thank you, past Ariana, for being prescient and all-knowing.

(Plus, we're sure your parents now have no idea what to do with themselves that their daughter is a total superstar. Nonna Grande, however? She's cool with it. Nonna is chill about anything.)
